The antenna can be attached through the mounting holes at a suitable plate. Don't exceed 2 [N/m] when
tightening the screws.
Because of the functional principle it must be taken care that the antenna is not inductively short-circuited by
the mounting construction. Especially the direct mounting on a frame or a plate of metal provoke such a
short-circuit and can lead to a destruction of the antenna. When mounting on a concrete wall it is to notice
that this wall may contain reinforcing iron in an unfavorable geometry. In this case only a power dissipation
occurs because of the distance of the iron-structure, but not a complete short-circuit. In this configuration the
reading range is lower than specified and the current consumption is higher than normal.
Figure 3: False handling of the antenna
When operating an antenna in laboratory it must be paid attention that the antenna in operation must not be
laid on another antenna. In such a case also an inductively short-circuit takes place which may lead to a de-
struction of the antenna.
Two adjacent antennas should have a distance of at least 50 cm to each other.
